Our Community Garden staffed a booth at the Grand Opening of Exploration Green on Saturday, April 28th. The booth was staffed by Siok Hong Chen-Baden, David Baden, Bruce Meltzer, Nathan Veatch and Don Rhorer. Instructions on tomato cultivation, garden applications, yard-long beans, 20 butterfly weed plants, packets of arugula seeds, and earthworms (for gardens not fishing) were handed out. We had a steady stream of visitors come by our booth and 31 signed up for more information. We welcome newcomers Susan and Robert Strahan. They’re sharing a donation bed and have an experimental watermelon patch in the works. So far this spring, we have donated a total of 34 lbs. of produce to the ICM Food Bank.
Our community garden is undergoing a period of revitalization. We are in need of volunteers to help water our extended donation beds. If you can volunteer one morning or evening a week to water, please let Nathan know. If we can get 2 teams, one on Tuesday or Wednesday, and one on Saturday or Sunday, it would help immensely. Please email Nathan for more detail at: nveatch@swbell.net
